HONOLULU -- This time last year Charlie Mre was in the midst of his senior season of high schl.What a difference a year makes.Mre, a freshman point guard, scored 15 points to lead four players in double figures to help California pull away from Princeton 62-51 in the Pearl Harbor Invitational Tuesday.Charlie stepped up. He stepped up and played well, California coach Cuonzo Martin said. He made plays, he made shots, he got to the rim.Mre shot 6 of 9 from the field and scored 10 points after halftime to help the Golden Bears (7-1) recover from a lackluster first half in which they shot 25 percent (8 of 32) from the field.Coach told me to assert myself a little bit more on the offensive end in the second half and make sure we execute the offense. Thats what we were struggling with in the first half, Mre said.California made up for it by shting 66.7 percent after halftime.We got off to a slow start to the game, but I thought our guys did a great job making adjustments, Martin said.Jabari Bird scored 11 of his 13 points after halftime and Sam Singer and Grant Mullins added 11 points apiece for the Golden Bears.Princeton tk a 46-44 lead following Henry Carusos 3-pointer from the left corner with 7:45 left to play, but California answered with an 11-1 run that was capped by a backdr reverse layup by Bird off an assist from Mre.I thought they made some really big plays down the stretch -- about three or four big plays and we really struggled in that little window there and that was the difference in the game, Princeton coach Mitch Henderson said.Devin Cannady scored 16 points and Spencer Weisz added 10 for the Tigers (2-4).Princeton closed out the first half on a 4-0 run to take a 20-18 lead into halftime.There were 12 ties and 15 lead changes in the game.California dominated Princeton in both points in the paint (34-12) and bench scoring (24-7).BIG PICTURECalifornia: The Golden Bears were a woeful 10 of 23 from the free-throw line. They made just 1 of 3 from the charity stripe in the first half and only 9 of 20 in the second. They entered the game averaging 67.5 percent for the season.Princeton: The Tigers came into the contest averaging 9.6 3-pointers made per game, but made just 1 of 11 attempts from behind the arc in the first half and finished 6 of 26 for the game.STAR WATCHCalifornia super sophomore Ivan Rabb missed his first five shots from the field and didnt score his first points until the 18:57 mark of the second half. Rabb, a 6-ft-11, 220-pound forward, was averaging 19.8 points per game. He finished with a season-low six points, but had a game-high 11 rebounds.SALUTE THE TRPSThis is second consecutive year the Pearl Harbor Invitational is being held at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and at historic Bloch Arena, which withstd the attacks of Dec. 7, 1941.

It is in desperate need of repair and has happened for a long, long time. One of our messages and one of our goals is to lead by example, Feigin was quoted as saying.In his statement Tuesday, Feigin said the comment came as he was addressing a question about the social, economic and geographic divides that exist and how we can help address them.Barrett said that Feigin and the Bucks wnership team seem to be a willing partner to address the racial disparities in the city of 600,000 along Lake Michigan, which a 2012 Manhattan Institute analysis of census data found is the countrys most segregated metropolitan area, surpassing Chicago, Cleveland and Detroit.ddddddddddddFeigin has said the team is committed to helping Milwaukee. In May, the Bucks owners agreed to pay workers at the new $500 million downtown arena at least $12 per hour by next year, and at least $15 per hour by 2023. The agreement also includes provisions to protect workers ability to unionize and ensure that the team hires workers from Milwaukees prest neighborhds.The deal is expected to apply to about 1,000 employees, including full- and part-time workers at the arena and the teams practice facility and parking garage.Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker signed bipartisan legislation in August 2015 that committed taxpayers to paying half the cost of the arena over the next 20 years in exchange for the team remaining in Milwaukee. The new arena is expected to open in 2018.---Information from: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, http://www.jsonline.com ' ' '
